Recently I was involved in a collaboration with artist Jon Butt and my work colleague Alexander Radevski, an industrial designer. The work was displayed at c3 art space in Abbotsford and at Testing Grounds creative space in Southbank.

In the next few our team will be competing in the Formula SAE Australasia competition held at Calder Park Raceway here in Melbourne.

Using arch linux and wpa_supplicant is sometimes a pain when you want to do something outside of the norm.

My latest project is launching a hackathon event for engineering students, makers, DIYers, hackers and tinkerers.

My dad owns a couple of Pinball machines, for the last year or so they’ve been sitting with “out of order” signs on them so I thought it was about time they got some maintenance and I did some repairs when needed.

So I got my printer calibrated enough to do a first print. I’m a bit ashamed at how long it’s taken but I can blame exams for the most part.

The main source I used in order to get set up was Triffid Hunter’s Calibration Guide, the other source that was quite useful was Tom’s video about calibration of the extruder.
